Doug and Linda Baker say this delightful popoverlike treat is the hands-down favorite of their guests. The dish takes its name from the caps Dutch babies wore during the Renaissance. —The Bakers, Stone Ridge, New York

Ingredients

1/4 cup butter

4 eggs

1 cup flour

1 cup milk

1 tablespoon cinnamon, nutmeg, and mace (combined)

1 teaspoon vanilla

Instructions

Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Place the butter in a 5x7-inch loaf pan, then place the pan in the oven to melt the butter, making sure it doesn’t burn. Place the eggs in a bowl and beat until just blended. Add the flour and milk and mix with a whisk until just blended. (Do not overmix; batter should be slightly lumpy.) Add the cinnamon, nutmeg, mace, and vanilla and stir gently. Pour the batter into the loafpan and return the pan to the oven. Bake 20-25 minutes or until puffy and brown. To serve, cut into quarters.
